Will be interesting to see which direction the new scoop idea goes, I have an idea where you might be going, but will probably be wrong. Have you taken a look at the Bassmax designs and the way they load?

Line array scoop, that’s got to be where it’s at lol.

https://freespeakerplans.com/kunena/30-tony-a-s-s/20236-mx-range-mid-top-cabs-wanted#20236
Just wondering what the chances are of finding a pair of, or maybe four MX top cabs.
Would prefer MX600s but any considered.
To go on top of four BS600s.
Any condition considered also. In fact in need of recon prefered.
So, if anyone has any cluttering up their garage let me know.
I can't buy straight away as i need to sell the tops i have first but need to know what is available and how much money i need before selling them.

When the stuff arriwed I saw that it may not be ASS radial horns maybe some other brand.
I'm going to our storage tomorrow so I will check it, are you interrested in just horns and no driver?

Would suggest you really test the cabs thoroughly before ripping out doglegs.

Turbomax drivers usually have a problem throwing, so if your cabs already do, you're in good shape already.

I really appreciate the fact that we can pick your brain on cabs you made back in the day and still get an informative answer.

Tony.A.S.S. wrote: There will always be brainless people with no imagination around.

SteveBcases "renscoop" is closest cab I have heard to the RX18, in terms of SPL and sub depth/throw.

Yet it's quite easy to see which mods he has made to a freely available plan, to get the performance.. simples

Shame not all builders are like SteveB, and use ASS scoops as performance reference, as opposed to copying them badly and ripping people off.]]>Tony A.S.S.Sun, 10 Oct 2010 11:49:12 +0100R2U system.

I've no doubt these amps are really good, but as we all know a good amp isn't the whole story.
I think your original idea of bridging MA3600VZ is immense.. Outrageous, but immense... smiley34 ]]>Tony A.S.S.Thu, 16 Sep 2010 20:40:21 +0100A new arrival. - by: beehttps://freespeakerplans.com/kunena/30-tony-a-s-s/9062-a-new-arrival?start=10#9120

I'm now going to attempt to get the Sono pics on. I hope they're the right size.
These are from 1980.

https://freespeakerplans.com/kunena/30-tony-a-s-s/8718-power-compression-figures-for-b-c-18sw115#8718
I'm currently developing some small single 18 bass reflex cabs. My current choice of driver for these cabs is the to yet be realest 18sound 18NLW9000, But i have now seen that B&C have a very similar driver 18SW115. I really would like to know the power compression figures for the 18SW115 as this figure plays a crucial part in the design spec of these cabs.

As a B&C supplier can you provide any power compression figures for the 18sw115

I wanted to ask because of in this case intentional "lookalikeability" and commercial product still in production I do not
want to act negatively to you ethically or commercially because I am "in speakerplans/building"mostly as hobby/DIY (OK .. through summer season occasional sound rental and mixing FOH but I do not make my living of this)

Your approach to sound business and speaker cabinet building is always inspiring and really beautyfull example what word "good" really means in phrase "good old days" when we are talking about audio today when most ears are "calibrated" by Mp3-s :ugeek:
